Making Twig Furniture and Household Things, by Abby Ruoff, c 1991.

Found this book at the library sale. I love this book! But I won't be making any twig furniture anytime soon, so thought one of you might like it.

Paperback, with library markings inside. Good condition -- clean, tight.

Directions for finding the proper wood for furniture and then instructions and illustrations for making chairs, settees, picture frame, doll cradle, lamp table, shutters, plate stand, miniature chairs. Fabulous rustic furnishings!

Let me know if you're interested and what you have to trade for. I'm always into vintage sewing or paper ephemera; am open to other things as well -- oh would love some wool roving (is that the right word?) for stuffing pincushions.

Let's talk.

Another good day!

Katie, I'm interested in the book but I really don't have any vintage sewing supplies or wool roving. What kind of paper ephemera are you looking for? I make fused glass pendants - would that interest you? Thanks. Sage:)
